    Default Recommended Tyre Pressure ?

    Hey All

    Just asking to what sort of tyre pressure should my stock 16" alloy wheels, with bridgestone turanza tyres on my ve be as im going to start checking them weekly so what psi is good ?

    Also ill be going camping this weekend and will be filling up the boot of the ve so it will be carrying some weight so will the tyre pressure above be good to answer my question or should they be pumped up a bit more ?

    Any help for both will be appriciated

    Check your tyre placard on your drivers door, that'll answer your questions.

    This.

    I think it's 36 front and rear (normal load), and 36 front, 39 rear (Towing/heavy load).
    Don't quote me; check the placard.

    I run my tyres on all the cars I have owned at about 5psi above the recommended. Due to my style of driving and the 1000s of roundabout in the estate I live, I get the best wear out of the tyres this way.

    Also this was recommended at the defensive driver training course I did a billion years ago.
